Xue Yuan frowned and entered the main hall, Cheng Bei followed step by step, and was sighing in his heart that the Zhao family's affairs were about to blow again this time, but suddenly saw Xue Yuan tilt his head, looking at the two thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls standing by the sedan chair outside, I don't know if the girls of this age look alike, these two look at Jiang You from a distance.

Cheng Bei's eyebrows were raised, and when he saw Xue Yuan's concentration, he hurriedly smiled: "The overseer has good eyesight, although these two are younger, they are not as good as the women who came to the water, but the younger ones are also not interesting, and the servants have heard that many regulars like this kind of young people." ”

Xue Yuan listened to the last sentence, his eyebrows moved slightly, he turned his head to look at the two girls again, nodded casually, and said, "Take it over and take a look." ”

He hasn't thought about anyone in all these years, but his thoughts about Jiang You have been like a spark recently, and he wants to try now whether he also prefers young children.

Cheng Bei responded with a smile on his face and led the two over, both of whom were wearing light pink jackets, showing off their youthful and bright faces. They are all trained, and they are proficient in the way of serving, and even if they are not useful, they can have some fun

The two thought they were going to be with a yin and yang father-in-law, but they didn't expect it to be such a graceful man, and they forgot that he was their father-in-law for a while, and they were surprised and happy.

Xue Yuan saw one of the girls leaning straight over, a sticky smell of fat powder came to his face, he frowned and avoided it quietly, and asked lightly, "How old are you this year?" ”

When the girl saw that he only asked herself, she was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "The slave's name is Xi'er, and she is fourteen years old." ”

That's similar to Jiang You, he raised his eyes and looked at the grease and powder face, although it was not very gorgeous, it could be regarded as seven or eight points charming, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was not pleasing to the eye, the fat powder smell was too heavy, the skin was not delicate and white enough, and even the hair bun was very kitsch.

Xi'er didn't realize it, and deliberately smiled and pasted it to her, but another bright smiling face suddenly appeared in his heart, and compared the two, he suddenly felt that he had enough appetite, how could he think that these two people were alike?

Seeing that his expression was faint, Xi'er didn't stretch out his hand to pick himself up, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and called in a low voice: "Factory Father"

Xue Yuan stood up, didn't look at the two of them, just ordered lightly: "Send the people and things back, and the people of the Zhao family will come to the door again in the future and send them back directly." ”

Cheng Bei hurriedly responded yes, drove people out like flies, saw Xue Yuan walking away along the hand-copying verandah, chased after him, and said with a sneer: "The slave still thinks that the overseer is the master."

It's not that he has no eyes, the person Xue Yuan can't look down on, even if he kneels and begs him reluctantly, he won't take a second look, so he called people in, obviously a little moved, but he ordered someone to send him out with a cold face, is this a look at it or not?

Xue Yuan frowned and looked at the holly who came in from the verandah, he tried it just now, so it seems that it really has to be the little emperor?

He spit out lightly, put this matter in his heart for the time being, turned his head and asked, "Is there any movement on the Queen Mother's side?" ”

Cheng Bei shook his head, pulled his sleeves and said: "The Queen Mother is just worried about Concubine Shu, and she won't be able to come back if she is afraid for a while, but we will lock up Concubine Shugui, I'm afraid that we will offend the Queen Mother ruthlessly." ”

Xue Yuan sighed: "I'm not afraid, Concubine Shugui's crime is said to be a deliberate attempt to kill the emperor at worst, and it is also ill-intentioned to say that I don't want her life to be counted, and the Queen Mother can't blame anything even if she comes back." ”

Cheng Bei nodded in admiration, walked a few steps behind him, and said as if he remembered something: "There is one more thing I forgot to tell you, Xu Meiren hanged herself the day before yesterday, if it wasn't for the people who went to deliver the food today to find her body, she is still hanging on the beam of the house to swing." ”

Xue Yuanyi snorted: "In her position, even if she dies, she can't enter the Taimiao, so she can only be a lonely ghost in the cemetery outside, whether it's okay, it can be regarded as fulfilling her wish." He changed his words and said: "There are still a few days to celebrate the New Year, you all have to keep your spirits, don't do this kind of bad luck again, that is, you want to seek death, and let me endure until the end of the year." ”

Cheng Bei perked up and nodded busily.

When Xue Yuan returned to the house, he still felt that there was a smell of fat powder sticking to his body, someone held a towel, water and fragrant pancreas came over, he repeatedly freshened up several times, and changed his clothes before he felt a little better.

The New Year's Festival is coming, but it will be thirty years after a few days, according to the rules, the palace should hold a state banquet, a big banquet for the ministers, and at the end of the year, the important matters of each department, the piled folds, and the silver in the inventory will be dealt with, and the first year's affairs cannot be left to the second year, Xue Yuan is busy for these things, and he has not seen Jiang You for a few days.

He went to the Qianqing Palace early on the thirtieth day, thinking that he would see the little emperor for a while, and his heart was faintly happy.

In the palace, Jiang Youzheng dragged out his voice and was unhappy: "I don't paint this, it's red and gorgeous, like drinking human blood." ”

Xiangyin persuaded softly: "This is a good rouge, the color is light, not heavy at all, you apply it and keep it good." "Is she thinking about Jiang You's first abbot such a big hall, or is she dressed up, and people are also in good spirits when they look at her.

Jiang Youdong hid and didn't let her wipe it: "I don't apply this, as soon as I wear the crown of the twelve, who can see my face clearly?" ”

Xue Yuan gracefully carried the tow sa in, and said unhurriedly: "The emperor's words are wrong, dressing up better may not be for others to see, I look beautiful, and I am happy in my heart, right?" ”

Although Jiang You didn't refute, the expression on his face was obviously disapproving, Xue Yuan reached out and took the white jade box in Xiangyin's hand: "It's better for the ministers to serve the emperor." ”

He said that his eyes swept the incense seal lightly, and the incense seal saw it at a glance, knowing his rules, and generally did not like to stay with others when the emperor was there, she hesitated in her heart, glanced at Jiang You worriedly, and reluctantly retreated.

Xue Yuan lowered his head and took a closer look: "The color on the emperor's face is good, but the use of fat powder hides the good complexion, according to the minister, the emperor only needs to apply some lipstick." ”

It's acceptable to only apply the same, she thought about it, nodded in response, Xue Yuan didn't take the hairpin, melted it on her fingertips with clean water, wiped it on her lips carefully, and said softly: "Purse your lips." ”

Jiang You subconsciously took a sip, and suddenly felt that the back of her hand was cold, and two drops of dissolved saliva were dripping on her fingertips, and she sighed: "How did you get it on your hand, I went to get a towel." ”

Xue Yuan gently grabbed her and said with a smile: "There are ministers here, the emperor doesn't have to be so troublesome." Jiang You was pondering the meaning of his words, and suddenly he held his hand, and his fingers dripping with lipstick were gently held in his lips with two petals.
